Can't wait for the news stories when they return to full training fur the first time, play their first preseason game, play round 1, get their first "so brave" win etc etc

I'm over the Essendon thing now. The clubs been fined, most of the staff involved have been moved on with the exception of Dr (sergeant Schultz) Reid, the players have served their bans. Time to move on

Will just have to put up with the ridiculous media that will treat them like returning heroes rather than players coming back from a doping ban
Exactly. FWIW I don't think he was ever going to stop playing on 2017. The whole thing feels like it is being stage managed - Worsfold says he has been in constant touch with Watson over the past year and then give him a 2 week deadline to make a decision. Most likely Watson will hog the limelight during the halftime break tonight and everybody at Channel Seven will treat him like some kind of war hero.

The circle jerk celebrating Jabs return on /r/AFL on Reddit is disgusting.
True. Jarrod Roughhead return to playing, Daniel Menzel playing good football after multiple knees reconstructions or Anthony Morabito playing football consistently at AFL level are all feel good stories. However, a self promoting hypocrite returning to playing after serving a doping suspension and hogging the limelight during the biggest week of the season is definitely not a story that will warm anybody's heart.

I'm usually the first to bag out posters for this but if he does a season ending injury in the early rounds, it'll be justified.

Can we go all European soccer fan on him when Essendon play here?
I plan to. Happy to for anyone to bag me out on that comment, I just think 3rd wave Feminism is cancer.

An insult to the many great Aussie female athletes beaten in the olympics by drug cheats. I am sure the likes of Melinda Gainsford have no time for drug cheats.
But he says he isn't a drug cheat because he knows that he was not given anything illegal/banned.

Just ignore that nobody actually knows what he was given, including him.

Really don't like the cats but I hate the swans.

Just hope the dogs can win tomorrow.
The swans don't have any players I particularly dislike but I can't stand how the AFL looks after Sydney

Don't mind Geelong so I hope they win through even if they are a vic side
